Jude Shibu

General Manager

Hi, my name is Jude and I am the General Manager here at Chacombe Park. Welcome to our website!

I have been an RGN since 1999. I lived in Saudi Arabia until 2008, which is when I moved to the UK. I completed my nursing studies at Northampton University and worked as a nurse in Banbury until 2011.

In 2011, I completed my NVQ Level 5 in Management and worked part-time as an assessor for nursing students wishing to join the NMC register.

Now I am with the Chacombe Park team and I am responsible for running this beautiful, purpose-built care home. My passion is to provide an outstanding service for those we support in a warm and pleasant environment.

I live locally and love being a part of this team. I am married and lucky to have such a kind and supportive husband. I also have 2 loving kids who make my life wonderful at home. In my spare time, I enjoy travelling with family and friends.

My favourite saying is: 'life is beautiful'.
